wrong choice.Chandimal is a test prospect. Anjelo is a T20 expert.Tissara Perera is in his best form for the shorter versions.Have few more in the pool and rotate depending on form and fitness.

Mathews was the most likely choice but would have preferred Thirimanne as VC. Chandimal is toooooo.

CONGRATULATIONS ANGELO AND DINESH. A very big THANK YOU to sanath and his team of selectors for a good selection in Captain and Vice Captain and also for the team that is selected. Keep up the good work and also please consider bringing in Angelo Perera, Shehan Jayasuriya and Sachithra Serasinghe into the 50 over game.

Sorry to say but new bottle, same wine. Jaya said Sanga and Mahela are needed for test team but presto - we don't ave any significant tests for a year. The trick is when the ODI team will be announced...
